About Mandapa, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve
Nestled along the tranquil Ayung River and surrounded by the lush hills of Ubud—the spiritual heart of Bali—Mandapa, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, stands as a secluded haven, offering a serene retreat for the mind, body, and soul.
Mandapa proudly offers an exquisite range of accommodations, each thoughtfully designed to honour the vibrant tropical surroundings while respecting Balinese traditions. Renowned designer Jeffrey Wilkes of DESIGNWILKES has masterfully blended traditional Balinese elements with modern design to ensure an authentic and luxurious experience that appeals to sophisticated travellers worldwide. Sustainability is at the core of the resort’s ethos, with each design detail carefully chosen to minimize environmental impact and enhance the natural setting.
Guests entering our two or three-bedroom villas are welcomed by sweeping views of lush greenery, modern décor, and the soothing sounds of the river and private pools. The villas feature expansive sundecks with plush loungers and shaded daybeds—ideal for unwinding, sunbathing, or delving into a good book surrounded by picturesque gardens. The Reserve Two-Bedroom spans 995 square meters and includes a separate dining area, living room, kitchenette, and walk-in closet, while the Mandapa Three-Bedroom Pool Villa extends over 2,000 square meters, complete with a private library, pool cabana, and in-room spa treatments.
You can also embark on a transformative journey at our Mandapa Spa & Wellness Center, designed to rejuvenate your body and reset your metabolism. Our comprehensive wellness programs are built around six core pillars, including yoga sessions held against the scenic backdrop of the river and rice paddies. Unwind further in our resort swimming pool, which boasts stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere.
Dining at Mandapa transcends the ordinary, offering a sensory feast in settings as spectacular as the cuisine. From the serene Ubud Pool Bar to the enchanting Kubu, indulge in a blend of Indonesian and international flavours. Elevate your experience with “Dining Beyond,” exploring hidden culinary gems within the resort or at off-site locations tailored to your taste. At the cliff-top Ambar Ubud Bar, savour Japanese fusion dishes and handcrafted cocktails against the backdrop of golden sunsets and live jazz. Meanwhile, Kubu creates a romantic ambience with private cocoons overlooking the Ayung River, where guests can delight in exquisite Mediterranean-European cuisine amid the soothing sounds of flowing water.
The name ‘Mandapa’ itself refers to a ceremonial pavilion in Sanskrit, symbolizing the union and commitment celebrated within its grounds. Here, each special event unfolds as a graceful narrative of romance and devotion, all set against a backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty and infused with the warmth of Balinese hospitality.
All this together with the lush landscapes of rolling hills, a gentle river, and verdant rice paddies make Mandapa an idyllic setting for destination weddings. Our dedicated team will work with you to create a luxurious celebration immersed in nature for you and your guests.
